Care for Rare

Can’t believe Penelope is 16 months old this week! She really is growing too quickly.

Here she is on the front of Pick Me Up magazine this week, raising more awareness for her rare overgrowth condition.

It’s still available to buy, the full story is on pg 40-41

Also this week we have been featured over on ‘What Katy Said’ as part of her ‘Real Mums’ series where I talk more about my experiences as a first time mum to a miracle baby; and how I think time flies when you have a baby (or two)! 🚀

They really are lovely AND they donate a certain percentage to Count the Kicks, which is a great charity that aims to empower mums to be with knowledge and confidence throughout their pregnancy. A baby’s movements indicate its wellbeing and by understanding their baby, mums can be empowered to trust their instincts, enjoy their pregnancy and ensure the healthy delivery of their baby. Penelope’s story can be found on Count the Kicks website too! Here’s the link: http://www.countthekicks.org.uk/success-stories/why-gianna-is-counting-her-kicks/

As well as the beautiful stickers, I have also been using these sweet landmark cards (I am serious when I say I want to enjoy and remember every single moment that Laurence is so small)!

Gorgeous photo the minion hat is too cute! I love the stickers too. I wish they’d been around when mine were little. But they will definitely be my next baby shower gift they’re fabulous! #MySundayPhoto

Your story is incredible. You are always worry about this that is out of your control. I love her curly hair. She is a very radiant girl. Congratulations on the birth of her brother too! I bet she loves being a big sister. #HappyDays xx

Penelope makes such a gorgeous minion – love her coat and hat – and congratulations on the Pick Me Up article and helping raise more awareness of Penelope’s condition. Love that photo of Laurence yawning and those milestone stickers sound great 🙂

You’re so good with the memento cards etc. I still have three empty baby record books sitting look at me. Never got round to filling them in and my kids are now 11, 8 and 5!! Loving the Minion coat!!! Thanks for linking to #BabyBrainMonday

Who doesn’t love a kid dressed as a minion?! FAB. Glad your story is getting the press it deserves to raise awareness. Also LOVE those cards and stickers – our youngest is one this month so guess we missed that boat. No more first smiles for us 😉 x MMT thank you for coming back to #coolmumclub
